Thanks Jeff I really like the Flamemask always works like it should. I bought some metal flake spray. I am going to experiment with it spraying light coat then clear. Then do it again in effort to knock out roughness of the bigger flakes. I am sure there is some sanding in there to just have to play around with this stuff and see what can be worked out.

The Eagle brass gear drive is awesome! Really impressive work. I bet it has a unique sound at full revs. Nova paint work is also stunning. Great stuff you got going on.
I've always been interested in 3D printing and have been following the developments for a while.
PCeng check this out. This scanner and printer in the vid will set you back around US$2400. Kit set printers can be got for $500+.

Thank you Dave for kind words, and yes very unique sound. We are suppose to take delivery of our new 3D printer this month. I have been looking at two different 3D scanners. One is the one in the video you ask pceng to look at.

Hey guys, just finished painting E/D body. Been using FlameMask more and more, works great. Picked up glitter (very fine) at beauty supply. Got seven diferent colors. E/D will be third body with glitter, I mean metal flake. Containers have small holes in top, like salt shaker. Makes it easy to apply where wanted. ....................... Peter |

Next body project a new 57 Chevy casting. Picture shows initial stance with AW cut down stock wheels, tires and o-ring aluminum fronts. I have not decided on paint scheme except that it will have metal flake in it. I have been working out my own mix for the air brush I will use. This one will have all metal gears. I don't remember if I ever said but the Metal Gears are ready. |

Thanks hotslotsho, my nieces father in-law has a real one of these. Our family has a few hot rods/hot cars. We lost two of them in fire last year. My father in-laws business burnt to ground along with a 50 GMC truck and a T-Bucket Roadster. Only thing saved was a 47 Harley project.

Today in the shop working on three molds. I am finishing the inside of the 57 Chevy and BMW V12 LMR. I am also doing a new Roadrunner Funny Car. I decided it was time to intro new car at Lions. I have run the Camaro's the past 3 years there. Also on the planning table are at least two maybe three new Fords.
